Dana 44 Indentify year (u joints)

[Sandtrap9072]

Can anyone help me identify my dana 44? i went to go and replace the u joints and upon pulling them out and destroying them. cant find a u joint to put back in it. seems like they are all external clips now while my axles are internal clips. after looking on the diff housing i found markings like 6-31256, 44 5F, and 233T. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


thanks nick

I'm fairly sure the axle U joints you are looking for are Spicer 5-760X

There should be a number on the long tube of the axle that will identify the year and vehicle that the axle came in. From there, you should be able to track down what u-joints you need.

there was no number on the axle tube. But was luck that the part number was written on the axle shaft and was able to trace it down. U joint was actually a 5-260X. I really appreciate your help guys!
